As you may know, using https://github.com/sagemath/sage-shell-mode, working with sage in emacs is a very enjoyable pastime. In particular, typing at the sage prompt
sage: sage.combinat.posets? opens a new frame and displays the documentation of sage.combinat.posets there. However, to my dismay, some of the documentation does not appear there. I reproduced the output for you at the end of this post. As stakemori told me, this is exactly what you get when using sage in the console. On sphinx' homepage I see that sphinx can produce texinfo, which should be the native document format for emacs. I have three questions: 1) what is currently used to produce the text printed when typing "object?" 2) where would I have to add texinfo as documentation output format? 3) (that's a question for stakemori) could you use texinfo docum emacs?
